Wavin Sentio - Comfort Control System

The Wavin Sentio comfort control system allows control of your Ventiza mechanical ventilation systems, either via the LCD control panel or the Sentio mobile application.

With Sentio, it is possible to simultaneously control Comfia surface heating systems, radiator heating, Calefa heat interface units and Ventiza mechanical ventilation, whilst additional modules are also available to enable control of other home automation devices installed in the building, such as external blinds, alarms, lighting or garage doors.

Controlling Ventiza Systems using Sentio

Manually change the current fan speeds (speeds 1 to 4).
Setting of ventilation and exhaust fan parameters for individual speeds (installer settings).
Weekly programming of the device operation (dependent of heating), with the possibility of copying settings for individual days of the week.
Control of the increased efficiency function, allows you to set the time delay seperately for wet rooms, e.g. bathrooms.
Summer bypass control allows you to adjust the temperature values to help comply with Part O of the Building Regulations.
The Sentio system allows you to designate rooms with ventilation and use the humidity sensors built into each thermostat and temperature senosr to control its level in each of these rooms. In addition, a high limit can be set for humidity in each room.

Sentio Control System

The Sentio control system has been designed by Wavin to provide the easiest and most intuitive operation possible. All functions of the system are configured so that the user

can easily control the climate in their own home. Sentio was initially created primarily for control of surface heating and cooling systems, however, the built-in advanced functions allow creation of a complete system for an intelligent home, maximising the efficiency and quality of the indoor climate. As well as constantly monitoring indoor temperature and

humidity, options are also available to monitor the outdoor conditions and adjust the indoor climate accordingly. Sentio also allows you to control ventilation units and heat sources – boilers or heat pumps – and adjust its power output or, in the case of heat pumps, heating or cooling functions. If the heat source is supplied without its own control, the Sentio system can take control of power parameters, and has a built-in weather control module. Sentio also allows integration with other smart home control systems, including advanced BMS systems.

Fully enjoying the benefits of underfloor heating and ventilation often requires advanced system knowledge and many setting tweaks to achieve the perfect indoor climate. The Wavin Sentio system changes everything.

Connect - Set - Go

Connect
The Sentio Central Control Unit (CCU) enables easy temperature adjustment and monitoring throughout the year. The CCU supports up to 8 thermostats, 16 actuators and 2 circulation pumps, with optional compensation for weather conditions with the addition of an outdoor temperature sensor. This translates into a high level of comfort and energy efficiency. The CCU has an intuitive cable connection system with colour-coded ports, as well as MODBUS ports to connect up to two MVHR units. If the heating system requires more than 8 heating zones, an expansion module can be also connected to the control panel, allowing up to 8 additional thermostats and 8 actuators for connection and management by the CCU. The control panel also has the capability to control two additional external devices (e.g. heat pump, boiler or even other home automation devices such as lighting or blinds). If you wish to add even more devices, there is the possibility to connect an expansion module which adds 6 volt-free relays to control up to 6 devices.
Set
The LCD touch screen is a display that can be used for all installations. Its preset profiles enable quick and trouble-free system start-up. The screen provides a high level of flexibility and does not require any special skills to change the settings. Since the screen contains all the predefined profiles, the installer need only answer the system's questions about the configuration of the heating system to enable the correct settings straight away. To set up the most advanced features of the system, you need to use LCD screen, or a USB cable for connecting directly to a PC is also available. In addition, Sentio Smart Connect allows an installer or technician to connect to the system remotely, giving full configuration access identical to that provided by the LCD screen. Usually, this is a one-time operation completed during installation and commissioning. Once the system is handed over to the user, it is not necessary to have the same level of configuration access. The most common user adjustments can be made using the thermostats or, most conveniently, using the mobile application.
Go
The aesthetic, intuitive, and easy-to-use Sentio thermostat displays information only when necessary. The intelligent system shows both temperature and humidity levels and also adjusts the brightness of the display to suit the environment. With the additional connection of a floor probe or use of the IR thermostat model (with an infrared sensor), the temperature of the floor can be adjusted and controlled even more precisely. After initial setup and commissioning, Sentio is designed not to require constant supervision or adjustment. The LCD screen or app will alert the user to any operation issues.

Sentio Mobile App

The Sentio application is intuitive with a clear and modern interface. It can be used to quickly set the temperature in rooms and zones, adjust Ventiza fan speeds, and set the schedule of your heating and ventilation systems from anywhere, even whilst at work or on holiday. It also allows you to regulate the temperature in several properties, as well as share comfort settings with other users. The application also allows you to provide time-limited remote access to the system, allowing your installer to diagnose and repair system issues without needing to visit.
